(1) Maximum transmitter power (TP) degradation of up to 30% is expected, starting from 80°C ambient temperature on MIMO operation
(2) Regulatory constraints limit module output power to the following:
• Channel 14 is used only in Japan; to keep the channel spectral shaping requirement, the power is limited: 14.5 dBm.
• Channels 1, 11 @ OFDM legacy and HT 20-MHz rates: 12 dBm
• Channels 1, 11 @ HT 40-MHz rates: 10 dBm
• Channel 7 @ HT 40-MHz lower rates: 10 dBm
• Channel 5 @ HT 40-MHz upper rates: 10 dBm
• All 11B rates are limited to 16 dBm to comply with the ETSI PSD 10 dBm/MHz limit.
• All OFDM rates are limited to 16.5 dBm to comply with the ETSI EIRP 20 dBm limit.
(3) To ensure compliance with the EVM conditions specified in the PHY chapter of IEEE Std 802.11™ – 2012:
• MCS7 20 MHz channel 12 output power is 2 dB lower than the typical value.
• MCS7 20 MHz channel 8 output power is 1 dB lower than the typical value.
